Three children brought
Onto earth
Three children did
He rear
Three children made
From His own genes
From stardust we appeared.
From the foundation
Of our lives
He sent us to school
Possessed of his intelligence
And HE was NOT a fool
Great aptitude for reading
This is how he taught
The books my father gave me
Produced much
Higher thought
We went to places
far & wide
Hawaii was like heaven!
We went to Montreal
For Expo '67
Various religions
We were to understand
We went to see the kivas
In the native lands
We went to search
For arrowheads
We looked for
various traces
Of native habitation
Appreciating other races
He tried to teach me math
Using the flashcards
But I was into writing
So he let me be a bard
He loved the
arts & sciences
He loved agriculture
He grew up
deprived of it
So he taught us culture
We took the piano
He helped me
make a start
Writing my own music
He encouraged my art!
I'll read him this poem
We will then discuss
How he has the
GREATEST legacy
*For my dad has US!*
